Ariana Grande's Late-Night Instagram Stories Are All About Jupiter

Picture this: It's late at night, you should be asleep, and yet you find yourself in a deep Google dive, researching the planet Jupiter. Let's be honest, we've all been there (or some variation of the above), and Ariana Grande has too.

The pop star took to her Instagram stories late last night, Friday, May 4, to let her followers know that she was having some ~deep~ thoughts about the biggest planet in the solar system. "Not sure if any of you have seen these new photos of Jupiter, but I f*ckin have, and it's all I've been thinking about all day," Ariana wrote along with a photo for emphasis. And...TBH, she has a point; the pictures are pretty breathtaking. "I am so in love with this incredible and mysterious and beautiful universe," Ariana went on to say, adding: "Oh wow, we are so small." (And she's right; according to NASA, more than 1,300 Earths would fit into one Jupiter — and it's so large that all the other planets could fit inside it at once.)

But the singer-songwriter didn't even stop there. She posted several more pictures, noting: "Jupiter can, like, get it. Earth is shaking. Jupiter, you're major." Ariana even shared a screenshot of her Google search history, showing several entries for Jupiter, and a few more for jazz musician Arturo Sandoval.

According to science website Phys.org, NASA recently released new photos of Jupiter from the Juno spacecraft. The photos reportedly highlighted "continent-sized" storms that covered the planet's poles. Scott Bolton, Juno's principal investigator from the Southwest Research Institute, told Phys.org that the photos looked like "a whole new Jupiter," adding: "The clouds were amazing."

Needless to say, Arianators took took notice of the singer's late-night Jupiter obsession. "Ariana Grande stanning Jupiter is a mood," one fan wrote on Twitter. Another said: "Good morning, in the words of @ArianaGrande Jupiter can like...... Get it." And this fan account even spotted a hilarious Instagram comment seemingly from Ariana herself: "Other planets? Cancelled."

Once again, Ariana finds a way to relate to her fans...this time, making us feel better about our own random late-night search histories. Thanks for keeping it real, Ari...and for teaching us about astronomy at the same time.
